Breakfast Pinwheels

I decided to try something new for breakfast since I'm pretty sure my family is tired of muffins! It would be my first disaster of the day! The recipe was simple enough, but my dough rolling skills need work! I found the recipe on www.bettycrocker.com. They are not pretty, but they are tasty and I guess that is what really matters! The recipe calls for currants, but I used dried cranberries.

What you need for the Pinwheels

2 1/4 cups Original Bisquick mix
1/2 cup milk
1 tbsp butter or margarine, softened
1/4 granulated sugar
1 tsp ground cinnamon
1/2 cup finely chopped walnuts
1/2 cup dried currants
1 tbsp butter or margarine, melted

Glaze

3/4 cup powdered sugar
1/4 tsp vanilla
1 tbsp milk

What to do

Heat oven to 400 degrees.

Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper.

In a medium bowl, stir Bisquick mix and 1/2 cup of milk until soft dough forms.

Place dough on a surface that has been generously sprinkled with Bisquick . Roll the dough in the Bisquick and coat. Knead the dough 5 times.

Press or roll the dough into an 11x8 rectangle.

Spread dough with 1 tbsp softened butter.

In a small bowl mix granulated sugar, cinnamon, walnuts and currants; sprinkle over the top of the dough ; press in slightly. Starting with an 11 inch side, roll up dough tightly; seal the edge. Cut into 3/4 inch slices. Place slices on cookie sheet. Brush slices with melted butter.

Bake 8-10 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from cookie sheet and let cool for 10 minutes.

In a small bowl mix the glaze ingredients adding milk, 1 tsp at a time, until the glaze is thin enough to drizzle. Drizzle the glaze over the warm pinwheels. Serve warm.
